Prince Mateen of Brunei is not only a royal hottie, but also a watch lover. His family is worth a whopping US$30 billion, so you know he can afford some serious bling.
But he’s not just about flashy brands. He also appreciates quality and functionality in his timepieces. Let’s take a look at some of the watches he owns, and how he styles them for different occasions.
The Casio G-Shock
Prince Mateen is a badass. He’s a major in the Royal Brunei Air Force, and he loves to show off his adventurous side on Instagram. He often wears his Casio G-Shock GW-5000U, a tough and reliable watch that can handle any challenge.
This watch costs only US$300, but it’s worth every penny. It’s perfect for his military and Air Force duties, as well as his outdoor hobbies.
The Rolex Collection: Daytona and GMT-Master II
Prince Mateen is also a fan of Rolex, the king of luxury watches. He has a soft spot for the Daytona model, a classic chronograph that exudes elegance and performance. He owns two versions of this watch: one with a black bezel and dial, and another with a white dial and a black ceramic bezel.
He likes to wear these watches when he travels, plays polo, or hangs out with wild animals. Yes, he does that. He’s that cool.
He also owns a GMT-Master II, a stunning watch that features a black and green bezel and an Oystersteel bracelet. This watch is great for jet-setters like him, as it can display two time zones at once.
The Patek Philippe World Time
Speaking of time zones, Prince Mateen also has a Patek Philippe World Time 5131/1P-001, a masterpiece of horology that can show 24 time zones simultaneously. This watch is made of platinum, and has a gorgeous dial that depicts the world map in cloisonné enamel.
This watch is super rare and expensive. A similar one sold for US$175,000 at an auction in 2019. But money is no object for Prince Mateen. He can rock this watch like a boss.
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds
Prince Mateen also has a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso, a legendary watch that was designed for polo players. This watch has a unique feature: it can flip over to protect its face from damage. How cool is that?
Prince Mateen wore this watch with his official uniform during Brunei’s National Day in 2022. He looked dashing and patriotic, as always.
Prince Mateen is not only a watch collector, but also a heartthrob. He was named one of Asia’s most eligible bachelors by Tatler Magazine in 2016. But sorry, ladies and gents, he’s off the market.
He married Yang Mulia Anisha Rosnah, a 29-year-old beauty who graduated from the University of Bath and runs her own fashion and tourism businesses. They tied the knot in a lavish ceremony that lasted for 10 days and had 5,000 guests, including royals and celebrities from around the world.
Yang Mulia Anisha Rosnah comes from a powerful and wealthy family, too. Her grandfather is the Sultan of Brunei’s special advisor, and her sister-in-law is part of Thailand’s yogurt empire.
The couple made their first public appearance after their wedding at the Leicester Football Club president’s wedding on Jan. 28. They looked happy and in love, and of course, they wore matching watches.
